Water and Wastewater

Water corrodes metal and rots wood: it is that simple. Fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) was meant for applications such as these and over a period of decades our product line has expanded to include several FRP products uniquely suited to water and wastewater applications where corrosion and rot would be of particular concern. These solutions include handrail and ladder systems, weirs, scum baffles, flight panels and fiberglass baffle panels. Redco EXTREN, SAFPLANK and custom pultrusions also are excellent in odor control cover applications. Surrounding these varied applications is FRP grating, either molded or pultruded, which provides a safe, long-lasting and maintenance-free alternative to metal walkways.

FRP is also very chemical resistant and can be produced with vinyl ester resin that is impervious to even saturated chemical environments. For potable water applications many FRP products can be produced NSF complaint. FRP’s numerous advantages and benefits in water/waste water applications should not be overlooked.
